JT Woodruff, the lead vocalist for the band, wrote these lyrics whilst reading reviews on the bands he liked. A lot of them got very bad reviews and he felt that he'd suffer the same fate, hence the line "they're waiting for us to fall".
Woodruff also states that this is the most personal song on the album, for him, and that it's his favorite to play live.[citation needed]
The video features Woodruff singing the beginning of the song as his speech graduating from "Hawthorne Heights University", and as the "I know" lyric comes in the view goes to a mansion, and into a window where a party is taking place. A female stranger approaches Woodruff and kisses him. The band is playing in front of the mansion. Woodruff goes to her house for dinner (the mansion flips over) with her and her father. Her father throws his tea in Woodruff's face as the two screams happen in the song. Woodruff leaves and the video shows the girl smoking and lying on her bed, as if unfazed by what happened. The view then goes over a city and into Woodruff's apartment, where he tears up her picture, throws it on the bedside table and stares at it. He falls asleep and dreams about her. He wakes up and stands outside her window holding up a radio, relating to the lyrics "I'm outside of your window, with my radio." She sees him, turns and walks away. The band, still outside her mansion, finishes the last few seconds of the song.
Kris Waldbillig, guitarist for Cincinnati punk rock band Mint 6 Ten makes a cameo appearance in the video.
